I thought we'd taken this about as far as we could, then I discovered the
original owner's manual for the '63:

	SEAT BELTS - If your car is not equipped with optional seat 
	belts, they can be easily installed with an American Motors 
	belt kit available at your dealer.  Front seat belt attaching
	plates and rear seat location indentations are standard on 
	all models to facilitate installation.  Before you fasten
	belts, make sure the two halves are not twisted.  Adjust belt
	length to hold your comfortably yet firmly in place.

Humph.  I still don't see any damn "attaching plates" in there...
